re: #749 Bagua
You need to add the a category for ‘lunatic left’, that leaves Kerry far left as the notch before.
The guy is married to a billionaire. It’s not in his financial interest to be on the far left, or anywhere near the lunatic fringe. He’s as establishment and middle of the road as they come.
I’ll concede that he was a terrible choice in 2004, and that Edwards was a sleaze even back then, but to call John Kerry a member of the far left or lunatic fringe is absurd. I know folks on the far left and they hated Kerry and voted for Nader because Kerry wasn’t liberal enough for them.
